Wonderful Friday!

Friday 1:34 p.m.
Yesterday, when I was having some couch time in the afternoon, it seemed as if my body was swimming in ecstasy; slipping and sliding. I didn't want to open my eyes and get up then. Falling into a doze once more would have been fine because I knew the bliss would be there when I came to. Then the door bell rang.

I saw the pizzaman yesterday and the Domestic Bliss was in and out of the house all day and evening (well, she does live here!), and that was very nice, but I didn't think I'd put in enough on my own time. So I cancelled today. Tomorrow is the new today.

I've just finished my third meditation and all of them have been brilliant, despite the fact that I was puffing the magic dragon between sits. Boom, Shiva.

I was going to go for a long run around three, but I may sit on. The Karmapa show is supposed to be on the web at seven tonight. I bet it aint! But it would be great if it was.

There wasn't much heat this morning though some did come in during the third meditation. But plenty has been going on! Mainly, I've been trying to concentrate on the navel chakra symbol. When I've been moving the attention up the mid-brain chakra ... this has been much better than ever. Thick, thick blissiness!

9:15 p.m.
Of course, the Karmapa's webcast didn't happen. Methinks some skullduggery is afoot here.

I'm going to leave of the meditations there. The consiglieri came to see me for a hour and a bit, and I went to the shops for five minutes. Apart from that, it's be meditating just about all day. No running, no bugger all.

These have obviously been the best meditations I can remember, at least for the advancement of the effects of the vase breathing. Not much heat though. It is still light here yet ... I'm going to have three beers now and watch the second part of The Scheme on the BBC Iplayer. The first part is probably one of the best or worst things BBC Scotland has ever done. But it's been a great day for the juju!!

I watched both Scheme episodes earlier in the week. I don't see what all the indignation is about. Well, some of the indignation. Yes, the deprivation is bloody awful, and people who don't have to live there are fortunate indeed. But I didn't find the program patronising, nor any more exploitative than any fly on the wall doco.

The Aussies went through this debate back in the 90s, with Sylvania Waters. In that program, everyone was horrible of course, whereas The Scheme has some real heroic types, and some sweeties I wouldn't mind giving a helping hand.

Albert? The Scheme is, I think, blinking wonderful. It shows how Thatcherism changes the working class. Well, that and the drugs! And the cheap drink. And the crap education system foisted on us by fung school teachers and the Labour party. I felt sorry for the couple whose children were heading for the jail. Bugger all they could do about it. Hotboy p.s. Do you get BBC Iplayer everywhere? Is it the same internet wherever you go. Stick vase breathing into google where you are and tell me if moi comes up.

Hotters it is indeed the same web everywhere. Except in a certain country I'm not going to name because last time I ended up getting my blog hacked and material about that country removed.

If anybody in New Caledonia ever wanted to google vase breathing, they'd see what you see. Dearie me!

PS - bugger all any parent can do about anything these days. Bring back the cane, the strap, and on one occasion the fishing rod. I wouldn't be where I am today without them.

Albert? At last all that knowledge of the computery world has been of some use to somebody! Thanks for that. It helped. Hotboy p.s. How can it be everywhere at the one time?

rob said...

Sorry, but I do computerology, not theology.

Albert? So you're refusing to tell us the answer! Typical! Hotboy

I'll answer when you start doing librarianism for free.
